The contract solicitation for unarmed security guard services at the National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona is a Firm-Fixed-Price vehicle set aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses under NAICS code 561612. The scope requires one unarmed security officer per shift to perform duties including main gate access monitoring, vehicle patrols across key cemetery areas such as the public information zone, committal shelter loops, and first interment sections, incident response, visitor assistance, and ceremonial support during events like Memorial Day and Veterans Day. A patrol vehicle, which must be suitable for continuous security operations and emergency response, is mandatory; golf carts are explicitly prohibited. The contractor is fully responsible for all vehicle-related expenses including fuel, maintenance, repairs, and insurance with no reimbursement. Personnel must hold valid Arizona unarmed security licenses and pass background screenings as specified in the Performance Work Statement, ensuring suitability for work within a national cemetery. The contract includes a 30-day phase-in period built into the base period pricing without additional compensation and contains optional extension years, during which Service Contract Act wage determinations will be updated via modification if exercised. Communication during cemetery operating hours must utilize government-provided radios, though contractors may use personal systems when necessary. Electronic monitoring tools such as GPS tracking, geofencing, QR/NFC checkpoints, and guard management systems are not required. The Government will monitor performance through observation, reports, and compliance with standards outlined in the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan, providing contractors with notice of deficiencies and opportunity for corrective action before any adverse assessments. Staffing levels remain consistent during federal holidays, and security officers are not required to provide medical interventions like CPR or AED use. The deadline for submissions is June 5, 2026, and offerors must formally acknowledge receipt of all amendments through specified methods to avoid rejection of their proposals. Performance is located in Phoenix, Arizona, with the contracting office based in Quantico, Virginia.
